Craig Breslow may have more tricks up his sleeve before the July 31 trade deadline. The Red Sox’s chief baseball officer has made major splashes over the past calendar year, acquiring Garrett Crochet during the offseason and sending Rafael Devers to the San Francisco Giants in June. Boston climbed the American League playoff standings with 10 straight wins before opening the second half with back-to-back losses. Before Boston aims to avoid a sweep against the Chicago Cubs on Sunday, Breslow appeared on SiriusXM’s MLB Network Radio to discuss the team’s deadline plans. “We went into this season taking a very…

Last year the Red Sox were buyers at the trade deadline, but even in the moment it was clear the club wasn’t exactly going all in. Left-hander James Paxton had just been designated for assignment by the Dodgers. Catcher Danny Jansen had a sub-.700 OPS at the time of his arrival, and relievers Luis Garcia and Lucas Sims both had mid-leverage ceilings at best. None were productive upon their arrival or were of any help pulling the club out of its second-half tailspin. This year, Craig Breslow needs to think bigger. The Red Sox entered the All-Star break as the…
Welcome back to this century, wherein we conclude our journey through the thousands. After covering the Red Sox’s first-ever victory and wins No. 1,000 through 3,000 in Part 1, and 4,000 through 7,000 in Part 2, we arrive in the current millennium for the home stretch. No. 8,000 – May 8, 2002 (12-6 at Oakland A’s) Red Sox manager: Grady Little President of the United States: George W. Bush “Time is a flat circle,” Matthew McConaughey’s character Rust Cohle opines, like a modern-day Friedrich Nietzsche, in the TV show “True Detective.” The A’s being such a recurring part of this…
The Boston Bruins have already done the majority of their heavy lifting this offseason, as they enjoyed what appears to be a fruitful draft at first glance before reinforcing their roster in free agency. There are still moves to make, but for now, the offseason frenzy has quieted down significantly. While the offseason is still young, some folks are already turning their attention to the 2025-26 season. That includes former Bruins forward Blake Wheeler, who made a big decision on what the future holds for himself on Sunday. Wheeler initially broke into the NHL with the Bruins back in 2008,…
Many NFL teams will open training camp next week, where the pursuit of Super Bowl LX at Levi’s Stadium in February begins. The 2024 NFL Draft featured six quarterbacks selected in the first 12 picks, and all of them are expected to start in Week 1 of the upcoming season. Jayden Daniels, who went No. 2 overall to the Commanders, was a legitimate MVP candidate as a rookie. This year’s draft saw just two quarterbacks — Cam Ward (No. 1, Titans) and Jaxson Dart (No. 25, Giants) — taken in the first round. Both could start Week 1. There are…
The New England Revolution have conceded 20 hat tricks in their 30-year history, including one this season by Orlando City SC’s Martin Ojeda in a 3-3 draw on May 10. So if there was one player for the Revolution to mark tightly when the teams met again on Saturday night at Gillette Stadium, it was him. But Ojeda once again had his way. The Argentinian attacker scored twice and Orlando won, 2-1, as the Revolution’s winless run reached eight games — the club’s longest since a nine-match winless streak in 2018. New England (6-10-7, 25 points) can’t seem to stop…

It got late early Saturday night, as the Cubs jumped on Brayan Bello for three runs thru two innings and never gave up a run on the way to a 6-0 victory. About the only thing that went right was keeping Reese McGuire hitless. He can get his own jollies. Three Studs Bryan Bello Yes, he got knocked around early, but he was in command after that, looking incredibly strong late, ending with those same 3 runs thru 6. What are ya gonna do? Masa Yoshida He had two hits. Abraham Toro He also had two hits, and a nifty…
